Title: When not to have laser
Post by: Cindy on July 28, 2011, 04:02:51 AM
I've had a rotten cold, put off a laser 'clean up' and finally went. I only had a bit on the upper lip and a few spots, so we got into it. The upper lip is of course never pleasant, but I have so few areas left that the pain is easily controlled (I use the scream method :laugh:). I'd forgotten that my nasal area was raw from using tissues for my head cold. I remembered my nasal area was raw from tissues very quickly.

The good news my entire face now takes 15 mins. Very good news my nurse- laser-technician, commented that my skin quality was really improving, and my facial hair density was no more than she sees on many other woman. It cost $66 for my entire face. I started off with three sessions of $250 to do my entire face. This is session nine. I'm now in the normal female, book in when you need a clean up cycle, rather than you will need another session in 6 weeks to get the next cycle of growth.

I think I've beaten the hairy monster

Hi Jennie,

How can you catch a cold in paradise :laugh: I thought such things were banned in Hawaii :-*

Get well soon. My laser people have been totally awesome, very nice and very supportive, and I'm the first TG they have worked on. They keep asking interesting questions. Some very interesting questions at time :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Hugs

Cindy

I've been meaning to book an appointment myself, so maybe I'll get the interesting questions...
